Marriage i'm China.

"a Chinese love letter. Have I any
old fashioned Chinese love letters in
my trunk? Have l a gilt-edged Chi
a crows track? There was never a
love letter written in Chinese, No
Chinese maiden ever penned billet
doux or sent valentine
Rather sadly was this said by ro-
mantle young Chinaman, Mr.. Hong
Wing, who is noted among the Chimes
for the skill with which he plays on the
mandolin.
I'm China" continued he, "a man
never sees his wife until he is welded
to her for life, and sometimes he does
not see her then, for she may refuse to
remove her veil until three days have
elapsed after the wedd ng. If he
doesn't like her he cannot get a di-
vorce, but he may marry another wife,
and then another and another, until he
has gone through the blindfo2d
lottery often enough to get one
that suits him. Some of these
Chinese Gro suses have hundreds of
wives. There was an old bachelor that
took it into his head to get married one
winter, and he married 300 wives be-
fore he got through. The last wife is
the favorite, but the first one is the
boss"
"If man never sees his wife before
their wedding, how does he make love
to her?"
He doesn't make love to her. His
mother ar1anges the match, and his
future nother-in- law makes love to
him. 1t is sour courtship. Children
are formally engaged to other children
that they have never seen at the tender
age of 9 or 10, and after an engage
ment of ten or twelve years they get
married"
Does a Chinaman ever marry his
,ousin?"
"No; marriage OF cousins was never
heard of in China. 4 man may no
more marry his cousin in China than in
England a man may marry his deceased
vife's sister. You talk about your old
families here, and your Oldest families
ire only five generations old. In Chi
IA families are seventy-five and eighty
generations old, and every member has
/ complete record of his ancestors for
Ill these generations. The remotest
kinship prevents marriages in China,
and if two families have the faintest
imaginable kinship seventy-fve gener-
atoms back their children cannot
marry. "-BroOktY,1 Citizen.

The Man Who Drove Downstairs

This Count Sander lived in a fine
mansion on the Schloss-berg in Buda,
He was very fond of horses, as are all
Hungarians, and his feats of horseman-
ship were not only eccentric but dan
gerous. He would force his horses to
plunge down from rocky heights, to
sale almost perpendicular cliffs, to
dash across the Danube upon floating
cakes of ice, to leap over streams and
chasms, and to clear fences, walls, and
even moving carriages, at single
bound.
One of his most foolhardy escapades
occurred one day in the year 1927.
There Was i'll the city of Buda long
and steep stone staircase which con-
nected the higher section of the town,
around the Schloss-berg, with one of
the lower sections, known as Christian
street. This staircase was not far from
the mansion of the Count Sander, and
on that parti lar day the eccentric
Count had for his riding companion a
German artist named Johann Prestel,
as bold and daring man as the Count.
Suddenly, as they drove past the head
OF the staircase, the Count, almost with
out word, turned his four hand to-
ward the steep paSSageway, and, flick
ing his long whip above the ears of his
leaders, dro c the team headlong down
the stairs.
How the wheels must have bumped
and ratified down the steps! The
Count was a very expert driver, and
could guide his plunging steeds with
much skill and ease, so that this ride
downstairs was not rs fearful or dan
gerous as it would have been with
less skillful driver; but it was wild
enough as it was. and even the bold
artist found the staircase qnite long
enough for such downward dash.
